The Cross

Baby It's Alright

The Cross


I could be your lover 
I could be your friend 
It's one or the other 
Or is that where it ends 
'Cos I never see you 
And you never call 
I want to be near you 
To hold you that's all 
Be there if you fall 

Baby it's all right 
Oh for the first time I could be strong 
I need you near me tonight 
Must be the right time 
How could it be wrong 
How could it be wrong 

You gave me my heartache 
You give me my blues 
I'm here in your doorway 
I got nothing to lose 
And cryin's no use 

Baby it's all right 
Oh for the first time I could be strong 
I need you near me tonight 
Must be the right time 
How could it be wrong 
How could it be wrong 

Baby it's all right 
Oh for the first time I could be strong - yeah 
I need you near me tonight 
Must be the right time 
How could it be wrong - yeah 

And if you should decide honey 
You need a love that's good 
It ain't about pride 
It ain't about manhood 
And baby it's all right 
Baby it's all right 
Honey it's all right 
Baby it's all right
